Ha ha ha. But really. I haven't had really great numbers recently. So I'm pretty happy about that 2.7 pounds. I didn't get as much exercise in as I wanted. But that's about to change.

See... I mentioned before that I had medical stuff going on. Well, I had started a medication. And it made me hurt all over. Muscles that I didn't even know I had ached. It made my heart pound and all sorts of crap. NOT to mention, it shot my triglycerides through the roof. My last blood test had it at over 300!

So this week, not only was I off the medication, but I had to cut sugar out of my diet. I even cut it out of my coffee! HOLY BEJEEZIES! I WHAT?!?! Yes, that's right. I cut it out of my coffee. It was a harry situation. Really, I was on the verge of hari kari. But if it dropped my triglycerides by 170 points? I'll deal. :)

So that is now one of my goals. Over at LHA, we came up with 4 booster goals to keep. Mine are:

1. To keep the refined sugar out of my diet. Only in my coffee.

2. Get some form of exercise at least 5 days a week.

3. Make sure I get my daily water requirements EVERY DAY.

4. Learn to cook 3 healthy meals. (Anyone have any?!?!?!)

So what are yours? Have an awesome day!

P.S. I put the picture on here because 1) I think it looks cool and 2) you can almost see the movement in the body in this painting. And that's what I need to be doing. Moving my body. Later taters!

I know right?!?!?! I did use sugar free caramel, but it just wasn't the same. :( Although I'm hoping that wasn't the tipping stone for finally getting a decent weight loss. Because that would suck - big time.

Thanks guys!!!! And we'll see if putting the sugar in my coffee really hinders any loss this week. If so... I may have to... oh no... don't say it!! I may have to .... go sugar-free in my coffee. NOOOOOO!!!!! WHY HATH THOU FORSAKEN ME?!?!?!?!? *falls into a fit of sobbing uncontrollably*

We all know how hard and torturous weight loss can be right? Kind of like..... climbing out of a pit of lard. Here, I will document my trials and tribulations of my weight loss process in all of its gory detail. From diet to exercise to how I'm treated by people in the world. I'll explore my mental blocks and what I did to overcome them. And yes, I may post pictures from time to time. THAT is how committed I am. So let's go!
